In short: Probably my favourite 10kIn full: To rate this as one of my all-time favourites when I have been racing for 33 years says it all. The course is challenging and will find you out if you don't respect it, but the organisation and atmosphere makes this race well worth entering. This is the third consecutive year I have done this event and I will be back next year. Icing on the cake - I won my age category prize and also a prize on the post-race raffle. Well done Barton & District ACDate of review: November 3, 2014

In short: Why the objection to advertising other local racesIn full: Firstly, I'll make it clear that I didn't actually take part in this event. As a race, things appeared to go relatively smoothly and participants seemed to enjoy themselves. What did concern me, as someone who has been involved in club administration and promoting local athletics in the Hull area for more than 30 years is that the organisation takes exception to anyone descending on their event to advertise forthcoming running events in the area. For the third year in succession I have heard reports of people trying to hand out flyers to runners, after they have finished, only to be confronted by the Run For All organisers to stop. Their attitude is rude, threatening and aggressive. In some instances, people doing this have been threatened with arrest if they continue. Why do the organisers need to take this approach on what is, otherwise a very good event. Handing out flyers for future races at these types of events has gone on for decades, and I've never encountered such aggressive opposition before. They risk alienating the running public of Hull if they continue.Date of review: June 9, 2014

In short: I'll be backIn full: Excellent event, and fast, flat, traffic free course. Organisation was spot on. In over 32 years of entering races, I cannot recall one that was as well organisedDate of review: May 4, 2014

In short: Windy out there - but you can't blame the organisers for thatIn full: 2nd time I have done this race, and you can sense the enthusiasm of Barton & District AC members as soon as you enter the HQ. The course is definitely undulating, made to feel a bit more challenging today in the strong wind. My time was a little down on what I was hoping for, but the excellent goody bag soon makes up for this disappointment. Long sleeved tech t-shirt, lucozade jelly beans, crisps, toothpaste and a hold-all makes this race excellent valueDate of review: November 3, 2013

In short: Great atmosphere - low cost race with good tech t-shirt and goody bagIn full: Great low-cost local race over undulating country roads. PB potential as long as you hold back in first half. 2nd half lot easier and faster than the first.Date of review: November 5, 2012

In short: Very friendly race - everyone made to feel specialIn full: 1st time I have done this race - but an enjoyable experience - despite feeling a problem with my calf muscle approaching 2 miles. I eased of so that I could finish the race. Despite the rain and the niggle, I thoroughly enjoyed the event. Good quality technical t-shirt to all finishers, and a moderate entry fee.Date of review: July 8, 2012
